This problem has attracted many mathematicians, including I. Schur, A.H. Clifford, and G. Mackey and, more recently, M. Isaacs, B. Huppert, Y.G. Berkovich & E.M. Zhmud, and J.M.G. Fell & R.S. Doran. The main topics are, on the one hand, Clifford Theory and the Little Group Method (of Mackey and Wigner) for induced representations, and, on the other hand, Kirillovs Orbit Method (for step-2 nilpotent groups of odd order) which establishes a natural and powerful correspondence between Lie rings and nilpotent groups. As an application, a detailed description is given of the representation theory of the alternating groups, of metacyclic, quaternionic, dihedral groups, and of the (finite) Heisenberg group. The Little Group Method may be applied if and only if a suitable unitary 2-cocycle (the Mackey obstruction) is trivial. To overcome this obstacle, (unitary) projective representations are introduced and corresponding Mackey and Clifford theories are developed. The commutant of an induced representation and the relative Hecke algebra is also examined. Finally, there is a comprehensive exposition of the theory of projective representations for finite Abelian groups which is applied to obtain a complete description of the irreducible representations of finite metabelian groups of odd order. 001451556 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (Springer, viewed December 8, 2022). 001451556 650_0 $$aRepresentations of groups. 001451556 650_0 $$aGroup theory. 001451556 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001451556 7001_ $$aScarabotti, Fabio. 001451556 7001_ $$aTolli, Filippo,$$d1968- 001451556 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3031138724$$z9783031138720$$w(OCoLC)1334721938 001451556 830_0 $$aSpringer monographs in mathematics. 001451556 852__ $$bebk 001451556 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-13873-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001451556 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1451556$$pGLOBAL_SET 001451556 980__ $$aBIB 001451556 980__ $$aEBOOK 001451556 982__ $$aEbook 001451556 983__ $$aOnline 001451556 994__ $$a92$$bISE
